Answer:
C. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the x-axis and four units up on the y-axis, from the origin.
Explanation:
Which statement is true about the ordered pair (3, 4)?
A. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel four units to the right on the y-axis and three units up on the x-axis, from the origin.
The y-axis is the vertical line you can't go left or right, you go up or down
Hence this answer is NOT correct
B. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel four units to the right on the x-axis and three units up on the y-axis, from the origin.
The coordinates of a point is (x, y) where x = 3 and y = 4 so moving right 4 units is wrong as x = 3
Hence this answer is NOT correct
C. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the x-axis and four units up on the y-axis, from the origin.
three units to the right on the x-axis
four units up on the y-axis
Hence this answer is the correct
D. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the y-axis and four units up on the x-axis, from the origin.
y does not equal 3 and you cant move right or left on the y-axis
Hence this answer is NOT correct
